A high-pressure injector for sclerotherapy of oesophageal varices
Endoscopy
|September 1, 1984
Abstract:
In the intravascular sclerotherapy of oesophageal varices, the success of the procedure depends upon the precision and rapidity of injection of the sclerosant. With the aid of a high-pressure injector, which has been tested in a total of 174 sclerotherapeutic procedures, 10 ml of the sclerosant can be injected within 7 seconds, without any particular manual effort being required.
